Performing with the London Metropolitan Orchestra in 1994, Unledded documents the much-heralded reunion of Jimmy Page and Robert Plant. Among the songs performed are reworked versions of many Zeppelin favorites, including "The Battle of Evermore," "Gallows Pole," and "Kashmir," along with four new songs, such as "Yallah" and "Wonderful One." The platinum-selling Unledded cd heralded a new era or renewed popularity. Released now for the very first time on DVD, Unledded is the DVD Led Zeppelin fans have been waiting for. Track Listing:
No Quarter
Thank You
What is And What Should Never Be
The Battle of Evermore
Gallows Pole
Nobody's Fault But Mine
City Don't Cry
The Truth Explodes
Wah Wah
When the Levee Breaks
Wonderful One
Since I've Been Loving You
The Rain Song
That's The Way
Four Sticks
Friends

Summary: GREAT DVD! NO REGRETS! EVER!
Comment: For all Zeppelin fans, any CDs, DVDs relating to them will always be worth having.

Summary: Page and Plant still rock
Comment: I've seen this DVD a half a dozen times already, very excellent! I like the way they retooled a lot of their songs on this DVD, the Rain Song, Kashmir, Hang Man, Friends, all sound terrific. Combining the two different orchestras with their rock sound added a nice mix to their music. By the way, Jimmy Page was a sharp as ever.
If you are a Led Zeppelin fan (at least 1/2 of the group) then this DVD is a nice addition to your music library. I just hope they come out with a DVD of their recent '07 concert. We can only hope it leads to a reunion tour someday.

Summary: Change is good
Comment: Now, dear reader, this is Page & Plant, not Led Zeppelin. The world has moved on since 1980 and so have they - thankfully. They've taken the lesser known Led Zep songs and reinvented them as world music classics. I love the locations, the slate mine in Snowdonia, the Moroccan Casbah - what a laugh to see the little kid there covering his ears when Jimmy goes to town on the feedback machine - and the studio stuff of course. Jimmy is still a genius on guitar and deserves his place as one of the 5 best rock guitarists of the 20th century.
I grew up with Zep and these guys are personal heros of mine. Great they didn't stick to the same old thing. Reinvention and change is the key to longevity in music and in life...

Summary: Fantastic (especially The Rain Song)
Comment: This DVD would be worth the purchase even if The Rain Song was the only song you ever watched. This acoustic version of Zeppelin's most beautiful song (in my opinion) is at least the equal of the studio version. The strings are awesome, and Plant's performance is great, even though his voice is not what it was. It may seem odd to see Jimmy Page sitting and playing acoustic guitar, but nevertheless you will be awed for 7.5 minutes by his mastery. Plant was as well, to judge by his reaction at the end of the song.
The rest of the DVD is of varying quality, although I definitely enjoy more of the songs than not. Jimmy Page is stellar throughout. The second half (from Wonderful One on) is better than the first. Highlights besides The Rain Song include excellent renditions of Since I've Been Loving You and Kashmir. The version of Kashmir is amazing (with a snippet from Black Dog at the end), and the number of musicians required to pull it off showcases the complexity and achievement of the song. The integration of the string section with the blues of Since I've Been Loving You is also well done, and again you will be amazed by Page's guitar prowess, although Plant's performance is not quite as good.
The other songs from Zeppelin III (Gallows Pole, That's the Way, Friends) are all nice, especially That's the Way. Thank You and the new creation Wonderful One are also very enjoyable, featuring some of Plants best vocal work on the DVD.
The rendition of No Quarter is only ok - I enjoy the studio version much more. That song in particular just doesn't work without John Paul Jones. I also don't like What is and What Should Never Be or The Battle of Evermore (the backup singer is too shrill) very much, although the studio versions are wonderful songs.
All in all, it's a great DVD, with only a few songs not up to my (admittedly high) standards. And please buy it for The Rain Song.
